If you knew Pat, you knew her generous heart. You may not know that the artificial heart valve she was given in 2005 during her open heart surgery, that gave us so many more years with her, was developed and created by St. Jude’s. In lieu of flowers, consider a donation to an amazing cause like St. Jude’s Hospital.
Your generous donation and loving thoughts are a light of hope to St. Jude children and their families. St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
It costs a lot for St. Jude to cure a child with cancer using the latest technologies and care. But because of donations, the price for patient families is $0. Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for anything.
Many families come to St. Jude thinking it's like any other hospital. They expect to pay high fees to get their child the best care. They're overwhelmed with gratitude when they learn St. Jude works to save their child's life for free using world-class care.
Your donations make this possible and give parents hope. Thank you for loving our Patricia. Her heart was full.
